Why is my cat being a monkey all of a sudden?

My cats get let out in the mourning. Lately the baby of them all has been climbing on the screen on my window. If the window is close She meows! SO i go outside, get her and take her and part of my screen inside. She doesn’t seen scared or spooked by anything, and my screen isn’t made to hold up a fat cat! i think she wants in but she has never done anything like this before. Why? and how can i get her to stop before she falls and takes the screen with her again?

Cats just do this, it’s just their way of letting you know that they are ready to come in. They want to be in their comfort zone. I would suggest getting a new screen. You can get them at the hardware store that have a stronger and thicker screen. We had to do that for our cats. It will hold up to a fat cat too:)
try buying a pet door
Your cat is simply PROUD of herself because she’s ‘discovered you’ inside the house, when she’s outside. Try pulling the shade or closing the blinds BEFORE you let the cats outside … she’ll try the ‘screen’ but if you can’t see her she should ‘drop off’ on her own … but if you can ‘hear her meowing’ then open the curtains/shade/blinds and ‘tap hard’ on the window right at her ‘stomach’ and look VERY ANGRY … she’ll get it that you don’t want her there and should get down. You may have to do this EVERY DAY for three weeks, but eventually she’ll get ‘discouraged’ and find some OTHER way to ‘act like a monkey’ to get your attention.
My cat does this too, she just sees people and wants them to play with her. My suggestion is to get a small water bottle and mist her with water whenever she climbs, it worked with mine.
